Inserting The Flight Battery; Checking And Adjusting The Centre Of Gravity - Reely Wild Hawk 3.0 Bedienungsanleitung

b) Inserting the flight battery
Attach the included fleece part of the hook and loop fas-
tener (see Figure 1, no. 8) to the bottom of the flight bat-
tery (2).
Then slide the battery as far as possible into the tip of the
fuselage and push it down.
After that fix the flight battery by attaching the fleece part
to the hook part on the battery support (2).
Use another hook and loop tape (3) to secure the battery.
Important!
Always ensure that the flight battery is correctly
attached as its shifting in flight can change the
model's centre of gravity.
This can in turn worsen the flight characteristics
to the extent that will render the model uncon-
trollable in the air.
c) Checking and adjusting the centre of gravity
After the flight battery is installed, make sure you check
the centre of gravity. To do this, put on the canopy.
The centre of gravity is 72 mm behind the leading edge. If
the model is supported at this point, it must be balanced
horizontally.
The model structure enables precise adjustment of the
centre of gravity by moving the flight battery.
If the battery cannot be moved any further, you can also
use commercially available small rim weights to adjust the
centre of gravity, if necessary.
Our tip from experience:
Attach two narrow strips of insulating tape to the bottom of the wing on the right and left in the area of the
centre of gravity (see Figure 31, no. 1). By lifting the model right and left with your finger and balancing it,
you will immediately find out whether the actual centre of gravity is in the area of t he adhesive strip.
